What the heck?

Well its been quite a week and a half for us. Last Monday we took Gavin to the Dr. because he had been sick and just wasn't getting better. So the Dr tells us in the the beginning stages of pneumonia and he has to go on antibiotics for 10 days. Yeah..... so we start the meds and he seems to be doing better then all of sudden.....fever fever fever! Hot, Hot, Hot! So now we are pumping in Tylenol and Motrin. Finally fever breaks. So you think we are done? Nope. Yesterday morning Gavin wakes up with this horrible rash all over his chest, arms, neck, and face! It look awful! My poor little Gav. So we have deduced that the rash is either a heat rash or something called Roseola Infantum which is when you have days of high fever and then when fever breaks you get this nasty looking rash. Of couse whether its heat rash or the other there is nothing you can do but wait it out. So do you think we are done yet....... not yet. So then again yesterday Gavin is playing in his room standing up at his swing and of course swing moves when he pushes it and clocks him right in the lip. Split lip blood everywhere. All over my shirt, his face, in his mouth!!! UGH! Lucky it wasn't as bad as it first appeared. Now he just has a little fat lip on top of it all! I feel so bad for him. Needless to say we've had a long week and a half!



Here is Gavin's chest and tummy.

He wouldn't hold still for me but you can kind of see it on his face and neck in this pic.
